Best Original Score for an Action/Adventure/Thriller Film |
This remake destroyed a classic. The acting sucked, the story wasn't even close to the movie I watched as a child, there were numerous mistakes made by film crew when editing the movie...
Garbage trash. Why remake this?
The Tom and Huckleberry actors were decent, Kilmer did a very passable Twain. But, how can you take an Injun Joe with an eastern European accent seriously?
The positives: 1. Another fine performance from the boy who plays in Super 8.
Maybe, it is not the most inspired adaptation. but it is nice, seductive, cool and funny.
I love the Tom Sawyer & Huckleberry Finn stories, and have collected as many filmed versions as possible, including updated ones. When this DVD appeared, I had high hopes of its content because of the presence of Jake T.
Slow. Weak.
The acting here is really awful and the cast is so bad I was expecting a white guy in black face to play Jim. This would have been a nightmare to work on, as the production quality is fair, but every day watching the daily's your face would hurt from "Face Palm".
I have always liked a good Mark Twain story, and even moreso, the adventures of "Huck Finn and Tom Sawyer" (1979 - ).
